Is kratos able to deal with machine identities? aka _that smart fridge on floor 4_

you could manage them by making a separate identity schema for them

<https://www.ory.sh/kratos/docs/concepts/identity-schema/>

That makes sense but <https://www.ory.sh/kratos/docs/admin/managing-users-identities/#creating-a-machine-identity|this bit of the doc> says:

&gt; *Creating a Machine Identity*
&gt; This feature is not implemented yet.

so that begs the question, is the doc outdated or is there something left to be implemented before machine identities are considered a supported entity?
